The world’s most populous nation has more internet users in the world, but its per capita figures don’t mean it has the highest percentage of users when compared with other countries.

Compare China’s 591 million internet users (not quite half of its 1.3 billion population) with the United States’ 254 million internet users (far more closely approaching its 313 million population). I looked at these numbers for a story over on IBTimes.com called “China: 591 Million People Online.”
